Nicki Minaj Interview with DETAILS (Speaks on Being Bi-Sexual, Her Abusive Father and More)

Nicki Minaj recently had a interview with Details Magazine, where she spoke on a couple different things such as being a openly bisexual rapper, her abusive father, Lil Wayne and much more.

Q: As an openly bisexual rapper, do you think hip-hop is getting more gay-friendly? A: I think the world is getting more gay-friendly, so hip-hop is too. But it's harder to imagine an openly gay male rapper being embraced. People view gay men as having no street credibility. But I think we'll see one in my lifetime.

Q: Your father set fire to your home when you were a kid in Queens, New York. What happened? A: He drank a lot and did drugs, and he would get violent when he did. When he set fire to the house, he was attempting to kill my mother. She got out before it burned all the way down. I've always had this female-empowerment thing in the back of my mind—because I wanted my mother to be stronger, and she couldn't be. I thought, “If I'm successful, I can change her life.”
